Radiative lifetimes of 94 high-lying even-parity levels from 29 717.231 to 41 692.155 cm-1 of Gd I and 10 high-lying even-parity levels from 38 057.954 to 49 291.082 cm-1 of Gd II, have been measured using time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence method. The lifetime values range from 7.1 to 220 ns for Gd I and from 5.2 to 47.4 ns for Gd II. Most results reported here lie within the uncertainty of ±5 per cent. Free neutral and singly ionized gadolinium atoms were generated by laser ablation. The second harmonic of different dye lasers was employed as the tunable UV exciting source (242-337 nm) to excite the investigated levels. A good agreement between our results and the previous ones was achieved.
